Oh yes, what a blasphemy that was-- when evil, evil Activision allowed gamers to play a digitized version of St. Kurt to appear onscreen with a dancing skeleton-- truly, I almost had a stroke and died.

C'mon, get over yourself. The Beatles do not need to be protected. Does it deeply offend you every time a person performs a bad Beatles cover?

It went against Kurt's own wishes. But anyway, what we're trying to avoid is that horrible brain dissolving feeling of seeing John Lennon sing death metal.
Or maybe you're just that sick and twisted that you would absolutely adore a scene like that.

The Beatles aren't sacred, but they are big icons of the music industry and smearing feces all over them by making the game exportable is not a good idea. And I'm sure HMX will get big mobs with torches and pitchforks after them if they'd ever allow an export of the Beatles game.

Okay, I'm done feeding the troll now.

"...that horrible brain dissolving feeling of seeing John Lennon sing death metal."

Keep in mind that most people were hoping for an export option that would allow us to bring songs from TBRB into RB2, not the other way around... so there would be no issue with the horrible, disgraceful, unimaginable spectacle of seeing a computerized John Lennon singing death metal.

I'm going to bed, but I just wanted to note the absurdity of your claim that "export=smearing feces all over an artist." That is just ridiculous.

"And now, playing a song made gamous by the best band of all time, The Beatles, it's...

SKELETON HEAVY METAL DEATH SQUAD!"

Only in Rock Band 2.

Yes, actually

Guess I did over think that one a bit when I thought that the Beatles themselves would be exportable as well.
But anyway, I'd rather keep the songs where they belong.
Seeing John sing death metal is just as bad as seeing a big virtual bearded guy wearing tight leather pants singing "Here Comes The Sun".

Now, if it was a real person doing that, I could choose not to see it. But if I just happened to be playing the game with someone and they happened to have a big bearded rocker dressed in tight leather pants... I don't think I'd ever recover.

I'm not saying it's a general fact. I'm just over protective when it comes to the Beatles music catalog.

Because I don't want the same thing that happened to Kurt Cobain to happen to the Beatles.

Thats the point i'm trying to make..... the Beatles shouldn't play other peoples songs and avatars shouldn't play Beatles songs. Kurt Cobain has been tainted by GH, that shouldn't happen to the Beatles

Thanks hannie for taking over from me. Feeding the troll got too hard, so I went to sleep.

If you want import and export you should wait for Guitar Hero: The Beatles.
